Reports utilizes a central server that manages storing and retrieving reports made by a server. This central server is referred to as the "Reports API". This is a REST API that runs in the cloud. The API is connected to a database that stores all of the reports.

To support cross-server, Reports utilizes containers. These containers define the Minecraft server instances running the Reports plugin and link them together. Containers are necessary to avoid conflict between your servers' reports and the reports of other servers.

Down below you can find yourself a graphic representation of Report's server flow.

Before using Reports, the server has to know to what container it belongs to. Without a container, the plugin will not be able to store/retrieve information.

Creating a new container
If you are new to the plugin, you will have to create a new container. A container only has to be created once for all of your servers, so make sure to only create one. This can very easily be done by using the /reports register <identification> <key phrase> command. The identification is an alias for your container. This can be whatever you would like. The key phrase is used later to link the server to this container.


Linking to a container
Since v1.2 you no longer have to manually link the container to your server after creating it. This is done automatically. You do however have to link your other servers to the container.

After successfully creating a container, you can now link your server(s) to this container. Simply use the /reports link <identification> <key phrase> command. Use the identification and the key phrase you used when you created your container, and it will be linked.


Changing the key phrase of a container
If you wish to change the key phrase of an existing container, you can do so by using the /reports changekeyphrase <identification> <current key phrase> <new key phrase> command. After changing the key phrase of the container, all servers that were linked to this container will be automatically unlinked. You will have to relink them after changing the key phrase. If you wish to change the key phrase without knowing the current key phrase, you can contact the developers on Discord to request a container reset.
